Simon wrote:"House of Cards" is my current series. Four more episodes to go in the first season. Doesn't grab you as fast as "Breaking Bad" does, and it takes you a little bit longer (and probably some research online, I am not too familiar with details of American policies of the White House and the Senate) to understand all the connections, but it slowly creeps into your system. Obviously very well-made series. Would still rank "Boardwalk Empire" higher in the genre of "men with power trying to achieve their goals by intrigues".

Boardwalk empire was amazing but it felt like it los a bit of steam towards the end

I'm a bit late to the Walking Dead party, but I've been binge-watching it and I'm currently halfway through season 3. It's excellent!

Westworld was this year's stand-out show for me, but Stranger Things was a phenomenon, season 3 of Black Mirror was brilliant and I also enjoyed a little-publicised show called The Girlfriend Experience and the TV version of The Exorcist.

Currently making a start on series 2 of The Man in the High Castle. I really enjoyed the first series, even if most of what I really loved about it was going on around the main characters rather than involving them.

I've now finally gotten round to watching Twin Peaks, and I'm halfway through season 2- decided to get up to speed, seeing as season 3 will come out in May. How did I miss this when it first aired? It's f*cking brilliant- it could easily have been the inspiration for such series as Life On Mars/Ashes to Ashes, Lost, The X-Files and many others. To be fair, I was a different person back in 1990, so I don't think I would have *got* this series back then, but now- wow, just...wow.

It's basically all about a VERY good computer hacker, if there IS such a thing. The lead actor is Remi Malek, the bloke who's playing Freddie in the forthcoming movie, it also stars Christian Slater.

Another one I quite liked from last year, was Second Chance, all about a hi-tech firm that discovered a way to bring someone back from the dead, in this case a cop who got violently murdered, so he could latch onto his son, who's also in the Police and so hopefully help solve his own murder. Obviously, the resurrected guy doesn't look like the cop who got murdered, that would be too easy.

As regards terrestrial TV, I'm really looking forward to the new series of Line Of Duty, airing later this month. The first three series, as far as I'm concerned, count as some of the best Police based TV that this country has ever produced.

Definitely... A lot of questions answered and it feels like next season is going to be action - packed

Saying of which, from what I've heard, the upcoming season is only supposed to be seven episodes, and won't air until a lot later in the year, probably July.

Season 7 will still be 10 episodes, it's season 8 which will be shorter (I read 6 episodes).

Ah, I hadn't seen this, it seems both seasons will be shorter - 7 and 6 episodes respectively.

Yeah, the last season of Breaking Bad was split in 2 and sold at normal prices.
